This course has been designed to equip general practitioners (GPs) with skills to provide psychological intervention directly with children and provide support to their families. The skills covered in this course can be used while a child and family wait to receive further support or as stand-alone interventions when referral to specialist services is not warranted. The course draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, psychoeducation and transdiagnostic skills.

Learning Outcomes

• Identify key techniques for establishing collaborative relationships with children and parents through effective communication and cooperation
• Identify and implement several appropriate FPS interventions for common child mental health conditions
• Formulate treatment plans for children based on the FPS of CBT, motivational interviewing, psychoeducation and transdiagnostic approaches
